Description

Craigafon is a single-storey building dating from the 20th century, constructed from whitewashed rubble stone and topped with a slate roof. It has no visible chimneys, as it is connected at both ends to two-storey houses that feature end stacks. The building is double-fronted and slightly offset to the left. On either side of a modern half-glazed door, there is a small four-pane casement window. The windows have slate sills and stone slab lintels.

Local climate

Craigafon sits in one of the wettest parts of the UK, with an average of 1,370 mm of rain a year. This makes it wetter than 97% of listed buildings in the UK. Its exposure to wind-driven rain is greater than that of 98% of listed buildings.

It experiences an average of 20 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 78% of listed buildings. Of these, 9 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.

Averages for 1991–2020; temperature trend 1991–2025. Figures describe the wider area (a grid cell of roughly 10 km), not the individual site. Contains modified Copernicus Climate Change Service information 2026.
